Buying a New Boiler: What to Consider?
There are many factors and options to consider when choosing which boiler is best suited to your requirements and your home. The type of property and usage are the key factors, but you will also need to consider the site of the boiler and your budget. The last thing you want is a boiler that doesn’t suit your home.
Which Size of Boiler Should I Choose?
Fitting the right boiler for your home is extremely important, you need to find a boiler that is just right for your home. A boiler that is too small will not be able to heat your home adequately or produce enough hot water. A boiler that is too big will produce more heat than needed which will increase bills, waste energy and produce unnecessary emissions.

You may have had the central heating on low once or twice over the summer but most people tend not to have the heating at full pelt until winter time.

Even if you don’t need the heating on, it’s advised to fire it up once a month to prevent a buildup of sludge or corrosion and to make sure everything is still in working order.
